Abstract

Systems, methods and non-transitory, computer-readable storage mediums are disclosed for a multimode GNSS odometer. In some implementations, a method comprises: obtaining, by a device, position and velocity data from a sensor embedded in, or coupled to the device; statistically combining, by the device, the position and velocity data to generate a first delta distance travelled by the device over a period of time, the statistical combining including weighting a contribution of an integrated speed to the first delta distance, the integrated speed derived from the obtained velocity data and period of time; filtering, by the device, the first delta distance to generate a filtered first delta distance; and generating, by the device, a first estimate of total distance travelled by the device based on the filtered first delta distance.
